How dare you say that about the Pope

How dare you say that about the Pope! He is the Vicar of Christ on Earth!

Shame on you!

It's untrue. The reason why the Vatican is talking to Muslims extensively is because of shrill, weak EU liberals who think all Muslims are just short of a Western education and welfare check from thinking just like them. The Vatican is merely reactionary here, not the cause of the problem.

So, are you going to waste your time attacking the leaf, or will you pull the weeds out by their roots.

As Catholic, I can tell we have no plans for conquest. Islam does. The reason why I think a lot of people turn to Catholicism is because it has a Redeemer in Jesus, and it has logical principles based and grounded in reality.

Most Catholics are pacifists anyway.
